This is it, the big one! Nervous??

Comments are screened. If you do sign up and then it turns out you can't, let us know ASAP.

The game roster will be posted on Wednesday evening. If you're a Beater/Keeper and want to submit questions, you must email them to quidditchmod@gmail.com by 7:59PM[EDT] Friday evening, with book and chapter references!

About submitting questions:

1. We would be very happy if, along with your questions, you submitted a direct quote referencing where you got it (including the book/chapter/page). It makes checking things much easier on us.
   
   
2. If for some reason you can't quote, book/chapter references (including chapter title) are needed; page citations are unnecessary. One of the biggest problems when confirming questions is different versions, which we are sadly realizing. (If you're curious, your fact-checking mod owns a combination of Bloomsbury/Raincoast's Canadian hardcover and paperback versions, which generally have less pages than Scholastic's American ones.) Several players also have e-Books/.PDFs of the books. Therefore, page citations are more or less nil.
   
   An example of an ideal citation is (DH, ch. 9: A Place to Hide).
   
   
3. If you are planning to use questions from a previous match (approved, but not used), please re-send them to us. We just need a refresher on what we approved a month ago. A note saying that we had already approved will suffice!
   
   
4. Finally, we apologize for not warning people about the quidditchques revamp. We realized from past games that many questions/answers were inaccurate (or just plain wrong), which caused many problems during gameplay. We recently re-posted new questions here, but forgot to announce this to the community. We are deeply sorry for the misunderstanding during the game.

Remember, if you want to play, you must be a Quidditch player! To sign up, you need to first read the rules and regulations, then apply to join the team!

We also award up to fifteen bonus points if you earn certain items, purchased from Madam Malkins and Quidditch Quality Supplies!
